My Best Friend was a Narcissist.
Friends - everyone needs them, but why are real ones so hard to find? Spoiler alert: it doesn't get easier once you're an adult. In fact it gets even more complicated once you throw work, spouses, and everyone doing their own thing into the mix. Episode 8 is about the best and worst parts of friendship, from the toxicity and cliques to the people you meet who make all of the drama worthwhile. ๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๏ธ ๐๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฐ ๐ช๐ฒ๐ถ (โ ย @trykaratย ) - IG: https://www.instagram.com/erictway co-founder of Karat Financial, helping creators with finances ๐๐ต๐น๐ผ๐ฒ ๐ฆ๐ต๐ถ๐ต โ ( ย @chloeshihย ) IG: / https://www.instagram.com/chloe.shih/ tech product manager sharing perspectives on career, life advice, and living in your 30s.
